Day 226 l Christmas Party Mingle
[Ianto has, predictably, gone a bit overboard for the Christmas party he and Jack are throwing. The entire apartment has been decorated; there's a tree with gold and silver ornaments and twinkling lights, garlands draped over doorways, candles in every window and festive nicknacks scattered about. It looks like something out of a magazine, and may make visitors a little afraid to actually touch anything. There's also a lot of mistletoe around (one of the side effects of living with Captain Jack Harkness) so it's probably a good idea to keep one eye on the ceiling at all times.

Of course he's made plenty of coffee and some appetizers, so he hopes people really do respond to the invitation Jack sent out, otherwise there are going to be a hell of a lot of leftovers.]

	[ This is pretty lame, but Jake had wanted to go so here Dirk is. He can be found chilling pretty much anywhere, especially anywhere appetizers are to be found, but isn't going out of his way to chat strangers up. ] (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Dirk! [Jake wraps an arm around Dirk's shoulders.] Are you enjoying our first Christmas party? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know, man. One thing I can say about the parties here is the food never sucks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Haven't encountered a morsel I didn't like! [He grabs another thing and eats it.] My thanks for accompanying me here, Dirk! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Is there any such thing as food that doesn't taste good? Dirk doesn't think so. ] No problem, bro. Holiday parties are a requisite date spot for any couple. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He's seen Dirk around enough to have put the face to the name and the voice he talked to on his first day here. He ambles over while Dirk's checking out the food.] Hey, thanks for coming! About time we met properly in the flesh, don't you think? [He offers a hand to shake, along with a brilliant grin.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-07-05 10:29 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, hey. [ Whoops, he's talking with his mouth full. Okay, Dirk, swallow first then talk. Social niceties. He shakes Jack's hand. ] Nice digs. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foreverjack 2013-07-07 07:16 pm UTC (link)
	[Jack really doesn't care about the mouthful of food. He just shakes the hand and grins.] Thanks! I think most of the interior decoration - and especially the Christmas look - is down to Ianto rather than me, but I'm certainly not complaining! All the brickwork reminds me of home anyway."

	smuppeteer 2013-07-08 01:30 am UTC (link)
	The brickwork wasn't up to him, though, it came with the place. Looks all old-time and homey, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foreverjack 2013-07-08 09:37 pm UTC (link)
	True, but he did choose the apartment. [Pretty much. He glances round, seeing the place through new eyes, realising he's already got very used to it in a little under a month. He grins.] This is certainly a step up from the sewer chic of the last place I lived in, anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-07-08 01:31 am UTC (link)
	Depends on the place and time a person's from. I mean, I guess this holiday is pretty specifically Christmas, but used to be a bunch of other holidays would get celebrated around the same time period. Yuletide, Winter Solstice. Kwanzaa starts the day after Christmas and depending on how the calendar lines up it could be Hannukah too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
